  • Page 27: Front Caster

    Front Caster: Caster can be very important to the handling of the car. Adding or removing caster can transform the steering balance of a car. The total of Caster is degrees Kick-up + degrees Caster C-hub. More Caster: Will give stability, especially at high speeds. More Caster generally suits large high-speed open tracks.

    Adjust the wheelbase by moving the white inner hingepin shims. A short wheelbase makes the car feel good in tight turns. Use a short wheelbase on very small and tight tracks. A longer wheelbase makes the car feel a lot more stable, and better in wide, high-speed turns. Use a longer wheelbase on wide open tracks.
  • Page 29: Ride Height

    Damping: Thicker oil (heavier damping) makes the car more stable, and makes it handle more smoothly. If damping is too heavy, traction could be lost in bumpy sections. The car will also change direction slower. Soft damping makes the car react quicker. Damping should always be adapted to the spring ratio;...
  • Page 30: Front Drive

    Front: - Less droop makes the car smoother in the middle of a corner and gives more steering under acceleration. Sometimes too little droop makes a car difficult to accelerate out from corners. - More droop gives more steering response in the middle of a corner and makes the car push on throttle.
  • Page 31 All these possibilities cannot be fully exploited if the car does not run on quality wheels. Tires and inserts are two of the most influential changes you can make to your car. The Corally RDX Phi kit comes without tires and wheels. There's a variety of wheels, inserts and tires available. Which one is the best for you depends on the different weather or track conditions as well as local rules when competing in championships.
